The Daily Roundup you’re listening to is part of the Reality C Podcast. I’m the host Reality C. I have a good show for you today. I’m going to talk about a few things that have happened in the world of Dancing with the Stars and relationships, or no longer relationships.
One of them prompted an interesting story in Us Weekly. I will respond to reader emails about the challenge that I did not receive last week. I have a story about something I like to eat or make for a while. The same is true in the sports world. I couldn’t believe it when I saw it. Then we’ll discuss what happened last Friday night in Southern California to commemorate the 35th anniversary of Back to the Future.
We’ll get to all this later. OK So which Dancing with the Stars relationship should we start with? Let’s just look at this. Headlining Dancing with the Stars. Professional Riley Arnold shares cozy photo amid boyfriend speculation. Quote, is this a hard boot? So over the weekend on Saturday, Riley took to social media to embrace the USC Trojans, USC Trojans, tight end Walker Lions.
This is from Us Weekly, and I point this out because I love huge gaffes like this. I love, I mean, how many times, when Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s relationship started, when Us Weekly wrote the story about it, how many times did I point out that these people were Know nothing about the game of football, but they are trying to incorporate football knowledge into their football story.
The best tight end in the NFL in recent years is also the most popular female on the planet. They try to sneak in the same way football is integrated into their story. This is a good one. That’s a good thing for Riley. Apparently she’s dating USC tight end Walker Lyons. I didn’t know that until Sunday because she posted it and said, is this a hard release?
This is how the story begins. she captioned the Instagram carousel, Was it a rough start? Read this sentence to you.
She snapped a heartwarming photo of herself nestled next to USC Trojans tight end Walker Lyons. Hey, Us Weekly, whoever writes these stories. You know USC is not pro football, right? You do know that Walker Lion is not an NFL player. So maybe you shouldn’t write. Riley looked at the NFL player with love.
Oh my god. I like it. I like it. when. Entities who know nothing about a subject will try to pretend they know. This is just some basic stuff. I mean, this story isn’t trying to describe one of the routes the Walker Lions had to run against Rutgers last weekend. It’s not like they have to talk about the offensive scheme USC is running.
They really just had to determine if he played college or NFL football, but they couldn’t even tell that correctly. Now I’m recording this on Sunday night around 11pm. Maybe when you read this story in the morning. If you read it, this problem will be corrected, but I am reading the story now.
Carousel 7 photos capture Riley gazing lovingly at the NFL player who puts his arm around her, Riley hugging him and enjoying the game, and Riley on the field with her sister Brindley and Brindley’s husband Pictured here, Donnie McGinnis. Ryan, for his part, posted a photo of himself holding a smiling Riley, which was taken from Riley’s post and shared at the same time as Riley’s carousel.
Great. Just, I’m sorry. This is too funny, too, too funny. Let’s move on to the next dance with the celebrity couple. They are no longer a couple. How about it? What a shock. So late Thursday night, after I finished recording the podcast, this thing broke out, but the truth is that Brooks Nader posted a tick.
The TikTok caption said, When he and I broke up, but I never knew we were dating. She lip-synced one of Miles Teller’s scenes in the movie “Whiplash.” That’s what he said, I don’t think we should be together. I think about it a lot. This is what will happen. I will continue to pursue what I pursue.
Because of this, it takes up more and more of my time. I won’t be able to spend as much time with you. And then the title of the video says, when he and I broke up, but I never knew we were dating. Well, literally, these two lasted a week after being eliminated.
Didn’t I say that literally? Let’s see how long these two can last once they no longer spend every breathing moment with each other. I said it probably two or three weeks ago. So Gleb apparently broke up with her. He broke up with her over text, which seemed like the cool thing they were all doing now, but he broke up with her over text.
According to people familiar with the matter, he wanted to be the first to break up. He ended things through text. Sources say Gleb got too comfortable, especially to the extent that he spent time at Brooks’ home. This has begun to draw the attention of Brooks’ family and those close to her.
Gleb sensed Brooks flinch at that. So he was the one to end it all. Look, we don’t think these two will get married one day. I mean, how many women has Gleb been linked to on this show? I have lost count of how many people he has interacted with, been in contact with, and dated.
I certainly don’t think anything with Brooks Nader is going to be serious, but it’s kind of funny when we see all the cute stuff and all the emotion when they dance. We saw the video posted by TMZ where they went to get tattoos and she lay down to get the tattoo and he kissed her and then two weeks later he broke up with her via text message.
It’s just that, at this point, it’s almost comical. Look, whoever Gleb’s partner is next year, let’s say it’s some young, young hottie, everyone is going to assume that he’s hooking up with her or they’re going to start dating. Like, Gleb should never work with anyone that the audience couldn’t guess would be his potential partner or girlfriend.
Because that’s why people talk. To be honest, I don’t think anyone wants to see Gleb with a 60-year-old former actress. That’s not what people want to see, because that’s what they get from him. Now, I don’t know if he did this just to make headlines. I don’t know if he just does it every season because he likes the attention.
This is very possible. He is, I don’t know his motivations, but when you’re constantly tied to your partner, nothing ever works out. You broke up with her via text a week later, after you were eliminated, and literally two weeks after we saw you and her kissing in the tattoo parlor.
But, this, this moment, is really ridiculous. Indeed. So I wanted to get a reader email from last week, but I never got it. This is a short story. It said, Steve, I have to wait until I’ve finished the challenge before I can submit my question. here it is. What do you think of bananas this season?
I didn’t like him for a long time before I knew what you thought of him. However, this season I found him arrogant and unlikeable. What are your thoughts? Well, I was confused when you said you didn’t like him for a long time until I understood what you thought of him. I guess I’m questioning what you think or what you remember me thinking about him.
I’ve always said Banana is arrogant and self-righteous. So I never said, oh, this guy is a good guy. No, this is what I have to say about bananas. He knew exactly what he was doing. He’s trying to make good television. He provided a great soundtrack. He’s a good competitor. He has won more challenges than anyone in program history.
He sees these shows as a way to make great television. Yes, he wants to win too, but he also knows what he has to do when he goes on these shows. Would I let him date a daughter I don’t even have? Won’t. No.
1,000%, but what I’m doing is picking apart his past behavior, which is just too bad for Johnny Banana in this season’s challenge. He has done nothing in the challenge this season. It’s not the professionals in question. He’s just playing games. He’s attacking the contestants.
He tried to piss off Devin, which he did. That’s what bananas are for. He’s great television for this show. Other than that, I really don’t think he’s a human being. You know where I stand on the Banana Morgan Willett relationship and what happened there. I will always side with Morgan on this.
And, but when I watch Challenge, I don’t think, oh, he did that to Morgan. I don’t want to see him do this. I don’t, I really don’t care if bananas are good or not. He makes entertaining TV shows. Whether you like him or not, he does give good sound bites, but is he acknowledged? Is he narcissistic? Does he really stand up for himself?
Of course it is. That’s who he is. You have to know what’s going on each season. That’s what he’s going to do. He’s never performed like this, you know, when he first started, he didn’t have that confidence and he didn’t have the seven wins that he kept reminding everyone of.
So, but at the end of the day, he’s been in, I don’t know, 15, 20 seasons. You just have to accept the cocoa bliss this podcast brings you. Are you looking for a delicious way to quench your sweet tooth? Let me introduce you to Earth Echoes Cacao Bliss. Not just any chocolate.
